ORGANIZE THIS: Week 2

Welcome to Week 2 of Orgazine This! How did you do with your

Head over HERE to read up on this week's challenge. It is all about brainstorming what kind of space YOU want to have!
Here is my space. I am fortunate enough to have a whole room to myself. I am fairly organized, but am always looking for ways to tweek it.

First up is my closet. Yep. We took the door off because it was in the way. I hate that part. Maybe some curtains would help. All of my stamps, magazines and die cut machines are in here. Oh, and I put up a rod to hang ribbon from, too.

Next is the WONDERFUL seven foot desk my sweet hubby found me. I have a great wall system (sadly from a scrapbook store closing) for my paper, cricut carts, buttons/flowers and odds and ends. I wish I did not have so much stuff ON my desk, but I'm not sure where else to put it. There is storage under my desk, too, but it is not stuff I want/need there. I just haven't gotten rid of it or moved it, yet.

I have kept a folding table up in here so my daughter can scrap with me when she wants to, but am thinking about putting it back in the garage for now. I do love my jetmax, but need a better way to store some of the stuff in it. And my clip it up. LOVE that! I really do like my room, but there is ALOT I would like to change, if I could have my dream room.

I'm a list maker, so here is what I would love to see in my dream room:

1. Natural Light

2. Big enough for a cozy chair with ottoman to sit and look through inspiration (I have a day bed now)

3. Different stations for stamping, die cutting, embossing...

4. A Library card catalog because I LOVE them

5. displays for all of the lovely cards that my friends send me (and my kids make me)

6. More closed drawer space to put things away

7. Funky, fun decorative pieces

I found a few spaces that I love. I totally need to design my own, though.

I would LOVE to see what you are starting out with! Make sure to link up some pictures for us whether it is a room, a closet or a rolling tote we would love to see it! And if you have a picture of your dream space...share that, too!

I love that you have so much out, organised and on show. You're more likely to use it if you can see it. And those dream spaces? Let's face it scraprooms are only ever that tidy for a photograph!!!Loving Jemma's version of a TARDIS - so imaginative.

I have been working through organizing the last several months over at 2peas, I'm not caught up though...with Christmas, work, vacation and now school it's been a little tough to stay up with everyone else but I'm working at it and that is what counts! You can check out my progress on my blog http://juliesjournaloflife.blogspot.com/2011/10/scrap-room-organization.html this is the first link and you can just look to the right and find the organization tag and go through them from there. Love that I can play along here now too!

I just "tidied" up my room which generally entails putting all my scrap stuff where I have decided it goes. But this does not make for a tidy room or even an organised one - neeeeed to play along with you on this. I want something pretty but functional. Should be possible!
